In seventeenth-century France, aristocratic women were valued by their families as commodities to be married off in exchange for money, social advantage, or military alliance. Once married, they became legally subservient to their husbands. The duchesse de Montpensier—a first cousin of Louis XIV—was one of very few exceptions, thanks to the vast wealth she inherited from her mother, who died shortly after Montpensier was born. She was also one of the few politically powerful women in France at the time to have been an accomplished writer. In the daring letters presented in this bilingual edition, Montpensier condemns the alliance system of marriage, proposing instead to found a republic that she would govern, "a corner of the world in which . . . women are their own mistresses," and where marriage and even courtship would be outlawed. Her pastoral utopia would provide medical care and vocational training for the poor, and all the homes would have libraries and studies, so that each woman would have a "room of her own" in which to write books. Joan DeJean's lively introduction and accessible translation of Montpensier's letters—four previously unpublished—allow us unprecedented access to the courageous voice of this extraordinary woman.

This book is a biography of a woman named Anne Marie Louise d'Orléans. She was an individual who stood out during her time, though she was not considered to be among the most outstanding individuals of her era. Her genius was modest, and her character was not particularly exceptional. Although she did not wield significant influence over events, she was a fascinating and daring princess who stood among the prominent figures that Emerson referred to as "representative." Mademoiselle's tumultuous life serves as a remarkable illustration of the profound changes that took place in France during the late 17th century. These changes brought about a natural reaction that fundamentally transformed the nation. Although her individual impact was limited, her story offers a window into a pivotal era in French history.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
